Long Overdue: National Monument to Fallen NSF & Reservists

[Papsmearer]

With yet another death recently of a NSmen, its high time the PAP should build a monument to all these people who gave their lives in service of their country. I know the service is not voluntary, unless they are SAF signon, but nevertheless, they should be remembered and honoured for their ultimate sacrifice. How they die is not important.

Lets face it, when the old fuck Lee Con You dies after a long and happy life of luxury, the PAP will build a monument to him to rival Napoleon, Chiang Kai Shek, Lincoln, etc. Well, he compensated himself excessively. But NSmen, earning a few hundred dollars a week, and enduring deprivations, physical hardship, and wasting 2 years of their lives are dying. The SAF with its multi billion dollar budget can certainly find $1 million to build a nice monument in a public place. No need to put honour guard around it all year, nor even an eternal flame. Something simple will do.

Oppo MPs, and NMPs should be bringing this up. Parents like Lt Chan's should start an association of other parents whose sons were killed/wounded in NS or Reservists to account for better safety and responsibility, and compensation from the SAF. Just my 2 cents.

It's really very funny, sadistically funny. MI 185 plane crash, if you recall, the victims were accorded nationwide heroic treatment, candlelight virgils, etc. as if they fought and died in a war, but it was afterall just a commercial flight accident.

NS thru the years have killed many times more the number of people who died in MI 185. As usual, the PAP have its priorities wrong.

White scums say what, their lackeys will just follow w/o asking. If Old fark die and build something for remember him, might as well build for late Presidents Wee KW and Ong TC.

monuments for NSmen is not a good idea.

No offence to the dead & the family...but a monument for NS men, who are not fit & died from running, & the latest one, killed by an army vehicle..

National Service only involved local Singaporeans. So even they died during training, PAP can control the news and pay the families victims cheaply and can dont really bother about it.

MI185 commercial plane incident involved foreigners, so the PAP must made the news big so as to show other countries that 'Singaporeans' had a Big Heart and Gracious, so no choice got to make the events very big and pay the families victims with lots of compensations.

very true! like the SQ06 case...farking famiLEE may their whole famiLEE burn in hell.

The case of Army regular died in camp, they also wanted to siam payment saying that he was off duty when he died.

So serve NS for FUCK??
